Yeah, I think I will be moderating. I've always been of the opinion that a harshly but fairly moderated environment thrives... anyone who's been around knows how I tend to moderate things. But it sounds like we could also use some new moderation... honestly, none of the old mods have said anything to me or in the mod forum since I came back yesterday, so yeah... if anyone wants to put their name forward for being a mode, hit me up with a PM. We'll get shit going again, and I'll send out a mass email to the old members and see if that brings anyone out of the woodwork.
Crap, I always thought a robust active boobie/booty thread was the secret to a thriving board. I hate to be wrong all these years later.
you're a beast! Many thanks, Nett. Looking good. I wanted to rep you for that, but you're at 666, so I'll leave that alone.
Ohmygawwwww! You are all overlooking the contribution white trash cat fight videos play. Text link in case that's not displaying properly. Not mad enough to grab a cactus, but mad enough to throw a shovel.
I like how she tells her to get her bb gun but then is shocked she used a shovel. And I WISH I had someone to carry me home like a baby after my fight. Of course, I was only in 6th grade. And it kind of turned into a slap fight. And I'm pretty sure I won as I broke her necklace. Then I helped her look for the pieces. Still a win! I think. And I just rode my bike home. Edit: Since binary is now a mod (congrats!) does this mean I can't moon him anymore?
That chick couldn't have used that shovel any more perfectly if she tried, the lead up to it was unlike any catfight I have even witnessed, when women fight it's usually vicious. Like chunks of hair missing, nails ripped off kinda shit.
Edit again because I suck at the internet today. There is a whole prelude about a chicken coop and more fighting. It's 8 minutes long.
She's lucky she isn't dead, it was a shovel. Y'know, alloyed steel. You could kill a person with one blow from a frying pan, letting go of it may have spared Idiot #2's life. There are VERY few non-bladed things to get hit with, although thinking about it she also lucky she took the broad side and not the edge. Either way, dayum. Fortunetly there was no brain to damage.
You can not imagine the sheer joy I am feeling today that I'm finally getting out of Florida today. I hate flying. Despise it. Today? I'd pilot the fucking thing if it meant getting home to Philly sooner. What a beautiful state. Shame it's filled with Floridians.
This has come up a few times recently, and one person even said they were searching for a discussion on a topic and didn't realize it was taking place in the drunk thread. I belong to a couple of other boards, and they have similar types of threads where people generally just shoot the shit. Generally if the thread gets too long, they start a new one. One board just switches it up every month - Random thoughts April, Random Thoughts May. The other one is more disorganized: Today 2014. Today 2014 Spring Edition. Also on one of the boards, if a post is more relevant to another open topic, and isn't replying to anything, the mods would just straight up move it to the other topic and leave a note saying "moved to link". Like the Sterling fracas from last week, maybe that could have been moved to whatever open basketball thread is on here (or if there were a general sports news thread). I think that was what someone had commented on - they were looking for a discussion on Sterling and found it in the drunk thread where they never go because they assume everyone in here is drunk.
If you want new topics, start putting them in the Suggestion Forum. For the longest time, that was the place that all the spammers hung out (because they could post new topics there), and to a mod it was thousands and thousands of spam posts, and was impossible to find legit topic suggestions. So have at it... start posting suggestions in there again, and we'll get them moved into normal circulation.... just like the good old days.
In an effort to prove that we are both too smart to be outwitted by pick-pockets in China, the husband and I spent all last night pick-pocketing each other. I woke up this morning and have a huge bruise on my shoulder from my purse strap which he kept tugging on to try to rip it off my body. Brilliant.
Mouse traps that look like wallets. Boom. Are there gypsies in China? You don't want to have a baby thrown at you.
Re: Re: 5/2/14 WDT NSFW Do they really toss fake babies at people? This was the most common thing I heard when the wife and I thought about going to Italy.
Re: Re: 5/2/14 WDT NSFW I'll be honest, my mom would be pretty chuffed if I came back from China with a child.
Oh, c'mon. Shovels aren't that heavy. Most of them weigh about half of what a frying pan does, and the shovel head doesn't weigh much more than the handle. It probably hurt, but she didn't wing it hard enough to cause serious damage. Still a pretty awesome throw though.
